Description

Indulge in these Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Scones for a delightful breakfast treat. These tender scones are filled with creamy peanut butter and studded with mini chocolate chips, making them a perfect balance of sweet and nutty flavors.


Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Additional Ingredients:

  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (cubed)
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream (plus extra for brushing)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, mix together the peanut butter, heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  3. Shape and Bake: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, shape into a circle, cut into wedges, and transfer to the baking sheet. Brush the tops with cream and bake for 16–18 minutes until golden.
  4. Serve: Allow the scones to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Best served warm with melted peanut butter or chocolate drizzle
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage
